1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely related to immunity and competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) are believed to play a key role in the development of AD. Therefore, understanding the ceRNA network related to AD immunity will contribute to the identification of novel immunotherapeutic targets and provide new insights into AD from an immunological perspective. Methods: Weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) and Enrichr enrichment analysis were performed to identify the immune-related gene coexpression modules through microarray datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) were identified from the microarray through differential analysis and mapped with related databases. Cytoscape was used to construct a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network. Subsequently, ImmuCellAI immune infiltration analysis was performed and a ceRNA sub-network of related core immune cells was constructed. Finally, the potential pathways related to these core factors were determined through gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Results: Through WGCNA analysis and enrichment analysis, the blue module and the green module were identified as key modules related to AD immunity. Naïve CD8 cells were shown to be the key immune cells related to AD. Correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves verified lncRNA Long Intergenic Non-Protein Coding RNA 472 (LINC00472), lncRNA HLA Complex Group 18 (HCG18), RUNX Family Transcription Factor 3 (RUNX3), Tensionin 1 (TNS1), Linker For Activation Of T Cells Family Member 2 (LAT2), and Solute Carrier Family 38 Member 2 (SLC38A2) as possible key targets related to AD immunity. Conclusions: The lncRNA LINC00472, lncRNA HCG18, RUNX3, TNS1, LAT2, and SLC38A2 identified in this study may be key targets related to AD immunity. These insights will provide future directions for the further AD research.
